My husband is from Milan Italy and when we lived in Italy he told me that Cardinal Martini not only celebrated a huge funeral in the Duomo (cathedral of Milan ) for Gianni Versace who was a famous Italian openly gay fashion designer killed by his boyfriend but he also had the infamous Elton John (who hates the Catholic Church) sing for his funeral, inside the Duomo!!!! I was shocked and disgusted to hear that since in Milan he was soooo respected and loved by the masses which now I see the same with the Pope. Unfortunately the elect are few who follow the narrow path. Martini was evil, I believe that from the moment my husband told me what he did.

[@fortiternontrepideJMJ]

ArizonaWillful Are you joking? Did you not hear the video with Dr Marshall ? He plotted against Pope Benedict, and much more. He was evil because he actively worked against the commandments of God and the Church. This was just an example of his audacity . Homosexuals who are actively living the gay lifestyle are not permitted to have a Catholic funeral. Did you not know? What he did was sacrilegious and he did everything defying God and the Church. That’s why I consider him evil. I think you are the one who is blind and foolish.

An interesting tidbit, I was reading a little about the historical St. Gallen (St. Gall.) He is quite an early church saint, but from what little is known about him, I find it very interesting that he was quite popular and was actually offered the See of Constance when it became vacant, but refused the seat. Later, he was asked to take over governance of large monastery, but also refused that position as well. He said God called him to a life of solitude, and he would never take any rank or position which might involve him in the cares of the world! What a striking contrast to the ilk of the St. Gallen mafia, who seem concerned only with wealth, power, and position, to their own possible damnation and the ruin of the institutional Church itself!!

[@msheaver]

I have a theory about why JP2 elevated those troublemakers even while they were openly attacking him. He was a man of deep faith, intense spirituality and had a very vibrant prayer life, all of which gave him the graces to do what he did for the Church. Given this, my guess it that the Lord wanted them to be promoted to pave the way for the revelations that are coming out now. The Lord wanted to make it abundantly clear just how steeped in sin and error whole factions of the Church are, and bring us to a day of reckoning where the Church cannot avoid confronting the issues head-on any longer. I praise Him for bringing His light to bear on all this!

[@timfariss3172]

JP2 had deep faith but is one of the worst Popes in 2,000 years (along with Francis) - i.e. the Assisi meetings, kissing and bowing to the Koran, claiming Our Lord did not descend to Limbo (against 2,000 years of Church teaching), apologising to the world for the actions of the Church, a good man but bad Pope.

There can't be any change in Christian doctrine. Christ is the same yesterday, today and forever. Easy to go according to "tradition", whatever that means.... God's Word stands forever. Let's go back to first principles!

[@EvangelistNickGarrett]

Dr. Marshall, At about the six minute mark your guest mentioned something very interesting to me. He mentioned biblical inerrancy as a hallmark of what I assume he means in his mind to be "true Catholicism." I've recently started on John S Harden's Catholic catechism - in the sections relating to the divinity of Christ and the older ecumenical council's he notes that as the 19th and then early 20th century archbishops and Cardinals, theologians and lawyers desired the adoption of modernism - and desire to see it spread throughout the church - that they adopted the views of Immanuel Kant and subjectivism. They determined that Kantinian subjectivism was the best mode for interpreting at least the nature and divinity of Christ. I understood Hardon to mean subjectivism in general view of the faith. Did this not happen? Or did that encouragement towards subjectivism somehow coalesce with inerrancy of scripture? I suppose it comes down to how they defined it? I have a problem with the way biblical inerrancy is treated today across Christianity because far from being clearly defined it seems to operate as an idea that suggests "inerrancy means all writers of scripture must agree on every single point at all times." At least it seems in the evangelical and protestant world that that is how it is defined. I hope I'm not too confusing here. Perhaps I am operating under the wrong premise that biblical inerrancy in Catholicism is second to the will and leadership philosophy of the pontiff at a given time. A good example to illustrate my point might be a the contentious point in chapter 8 of Amoris laetitia. In support of my idea about subjectivism the pope clarifies that it is in fact ones subjective culpability and the counseling of the priest that leads to the fitness of spirit to engage the sacrament for an individual in a "non traditional" union. Didn't Francis reply to the dubias in support of his ideas? Does he not continue to do so against great opposition from a large part of the church. This brings me back to my confusion about the statement of the good gentleman regarding inerrancy. This ties in right now with today's discussion on Saint gallan's mafia. Their whole point was to overturn what they considered the old and archaic and adoption of perhaps further modernism or even post modernism which would still have this subjectivism as it's roots. Forgive me for the boldness of this statement but where is there any room in today's Catholicism for biblical inerrancy - respectfully I don't even know if this is something that can be answered in a comment or a video but it is certainly a curiosity to me. Thank you for the channel by the way I recently found you - I greatly respect your work and in fact revised a piece of my own based on your example and organizing research. I find you to be very good at restraining yourself from leading questions. You are a consummate professional and I benefit greatly from your channel. Thanks .

[@JK-ip5zc]

Evangelist Nick Garrett. Dei Verbum and the Magisterial statements of the last century have laid a very solid foundation to understand biblical inerrancy. Dei Verbum also gives a definition of Sacred Tradition. It doesn’t matter what happens with individual bishops (even the Pope), they are all subservient to Divine Revelation. They can’t change it or teach contrary to it. Let the record show that there has been no answer to the dubia submitted to Pope Francis about Amoris Laetitiae. That would have been helpful to have clarification on the controversial footnote.

[@JK-ip5zc]

Evangelist Nick Garrett. Also, Kantian Idealism is essentially inimical to Thomistic realism. Thomistic realism has been Magisterially tied to the perennial thought of the Church time and time again.

[@MsHelene2009]

[@mottledbrain]

Mag, they may have gone against the rules and against the Holy Spirit, but the thing to remember is that EVERYTHING IN THE UNIVERSE IS EITHER WILLED BY GOD OR ALLOWED BY GOD. Popes have often been elected that, in hindsight, were not the will of the Holy Spirit. But that in no way means that these popes were not true popes. For example : "Pope John XII (937-964), who gave land to a mistress, murdered several people, and was killed by a man who caught him in bed with his wife." [www.patheos.com/blogs/davearmstrong/2015/11/bad-popes-how-many-were-there.html]

+Mag Nified I would like to know the answer to this also. This is a very good question.

[@magnified4912]

This is exactly what I am trying to do - I try not to be deceived, that is why I ask questions. There were false popes in the history, there was even a woman pope. I am fully aware that God is in charge of everything but He also respects our free will and He permits the falsehoods and evils caused by us. Therefore He may also permit the false pope to be chosen. He always brings about a greater good out of all evils that we commit. There are strict rules to choosing a pope. I just wonder what the consequences are when they are broken?

re: youth synod Using youth in this way is not a silly idea. It’s a Machiavellian tactic that seeks to exploit both the youth and the adults who want to be seen as supporting the youth. It’s a scam to try and do an end-run around forthright discussion. If the scammers who design these things said what they meant and wanted in plain language they would likely be excommunicated (if the hierarchy actually followed doctrine, that is). Most of the people involved are of course not scammers, they’re well-meaning people who don’t believe in Catholic doctrine and want doctrine changed.

JP2 was backed by the Opus Dei, Ratzinger was supported by the Curia who planned the entire scenario to have him elected. So, what is new? When Ratzinger resigned, there was enough time among the cardinals to have an open discussing and to express their frustration about the Curia.

[@HowardARoark]

Christianity is very simple - its about self-sacrifice for what is true and good and just. But some people can endlessly twist what the words "true", "good", and "just" actually mean. This is what has happened in the Roman Catholic Church. Timothy Gordon says :- 'What makes a Catholic a Catholic is whether or not you believe in the inerrancy of scripture and in "Tradition" capital T, those two things together make the Deposit of Faith.' By "Tradition" is it clear what is meant is the Catholic Church Heirarchy. In other words the "inerrancy" of that Heirarchy must be believed in. But Dr Taylor Marshall says this :- "We want our clergy, our cardinals, our bishops, and our popes to be saints, when there's controversy in the church, when there's debate, accusations, we want those to be false, we want them to "go away" - but if they are true they deserve an investigation". Wanting an "investigation of" is not compatible with "believing in the inerrancy of" - in fact these are a direct logical contradiction. "Believing in the inerrancy of" is blind obedience - just as is demanded by a secret society or a mercenary death squad. The "Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith" to which Timothy Gordon refers is the modern name for the Holy Office of the Inquisition, the institution founded to torture and execute people who disagreed with the Roman Catholic Heirarchy - 'Heretics'. Timothy Gordon says :- 'The pope is "general commander and spiritual leader" of the Catholic Church defending the Deposit of Faith.' "General Commander" is a military term - Roman Catholic Church is a military organization. The Pope is "defending" the commitment to serve that military - to follow and not question any order. Because this allows family ties and basic human sensibilities to be over-ridden, paving the way for every kind of ultra-violence and depravity. It is a shattering of the human mind and soul, recast into a "super soldier". The words "Of Christ" are appended to confer credibility and righteousness. But these acts are crime and crime must be repaid. Timothy Gordon says :- 'What makes a Catholic? Its not whether you believe everything that "this or that" prelate has said - its whether or not you ACCEPT EVERYTHING IN THE DEPOSIT OF FAITH'. In other words a Catholic is a soldier within a military organization, committed to following orders. He is not a Christian, and a Christian does not fall within the definition given above of "Catholic". A person becomes a Christian when they have decided to give over their own life for the one whom they love. Love of power and hatred will never triumph over the love of truth and justice.

"SURPRISES OF THE HOLY SPIRIT"?? What a joke!

[@gracefulewe]

As a Protestant, I see that as a gross perversion of "faith alone". "Faith alone" does not lead to immorality. My Protestant friends and I growing up were committed to celibacy, but many of the Catholics I knew weren't. As an adult, as you're allowed to make your own friends and aren't just friends with the people around you, I made several strongly committed Catholic friends. Immorality is not a denominational issue. It is a heart issue.

[@kimfleury]

It's Luther's assertion that all your sins are covered like snow on a dunghill, and I think it was Calvin who wrote that he could die in the bed of another man's wife and be assured of going to heaven. The Protestant Reformers wrote those things, so the discussion in the video isn't perverting the Reformers' teaching, even if you understand it to have evolved from what they taught. When I was a teen, I didn't know a single Protestant that was committed to celibacy ... or CHASTITY, either. Celibacy means "unmarried." Chastity means you only have sex with your spouse. My Protestant classmates were pushy about trying to get every girl to lose it, and they were the kids who in childhood were pushy about getting everyone to go to "Bring-A-Friend-Get-A-Prize" Backyard Bible School. But that's not a denominational thing, it was the influences they followed.

[@marcokite]

Faith alone can lead to sin, not surprising as it goes against the Bible (e.g. St James' letter, words of Our Lord and St Paul on our actions), of course many Catholics sin this way and many Protestants don't, but the 2 guys here are 100% correct on Faith alone.

As it is presented in the catechism and confessions of the magisterial Protestant churches, the doctrine of justification through faith alone does not lead to the kind of flippant attitude toward morality that Dr. Marshall and Mr.Gordon attribute to the St. Gallen's Group. As the last two respondents pointed out, St. James makes it clear that faith without works is evidence of a dead faith and St. Paul talked about "faith working through love" (Gal. 5:6). Accordingly, the magisterial Reformers (e.g., Luther, Calvin, Bucer, Virmigli, Ursinus, etc.) taught that the type of faith that lays hold of the righteousness of Christ (i.e., justifies) is a faith that produces an ardent desire to lead a holy life. Indeed, the Reformers severely warned people that abandoning themselves to an immoral lifestyle was indicative of their not having received true faith. It was important then to "do good so that we may be assured of our faith by its fruits" (Heidelberg Catechism, Q/A 86). I cannot find where Calvin says what KA Fleury says he said. It's very difficult to imagine Calvin ever actually doing something like that. But, if he did say it, his point no doubt was simply to accentuate the difference between justification and sanctification. We need to remember that one of the punishments for fornication and adultery in Calvin's Geneva was banishment from the city. Maybe the Reformers were wrong in their interpretations of St. Paul and St. James, but we should not slander the Reformers by suggesting that their doctrine of justification is the same doctrine as that held - purportedly - by the St. Gallen's group. Luther and Calvin would no doubt have been united with Marshall and Gordon in opposition to such theology.

Blaming the Catholic clergy sex abuse scandals on Lutheran theology, now that really takes the cake.

gracefulewe just because someone doesn't live up to Church teaching, only proves they need to strive to be perfect as our Heavenly Father is perfect! You can't call out Jesus for commanding us to be perfect!

Also, before st Galen a group met at a secret retreat called Shangrila on the road to it named Syberite owned by a Monsignor Murphy (deceased) Outside of Palmer Alaska where in 1984ish cardinals met and stayed a week. My memory has Sodano and Bertone and Martini were there. It was rustic and had a Bunk house.

You saw, it here first: 3/11/2019: my prediction for this year is that Pope Francis will make an infallible declaration about something, and my second prediction will be that it will some way, shape, or form, without the pleading of the faithful as in the two previous declarations, approve of homosexual relations and even unions in some form. Alternately, it would have to do with female priests and bishops. Francis seems to self-confident like he is hiding something or biding his time to pull a rabbit out of his episcopal hat.

The problem lies in wanting power and control. The hierarchy needs ousted and a repentant church arise. Rise up! My bishop asked the laity what the church should do about the abuse in the church. Can you believe it? The Church is already split.

If numbers that have been quoted in regard to the number of homosexuals in the Church is accurate then what can we do to change the tide on this issue? We all know what the issue is however I don't recall anyone saying, "alright, let's start here to make changes" or I've missed it.

If faithful Catholics had stood with Archbishop Lefebvre we wouldn't be in this mess now. Paul VI destroyed the mass and facilitated the handing over of the Church to Her enemies . JPll and his blasphemous Assisi meetings. Buddha placed on a tabernacle and yet a faithful bishop whose only crime was he was faithful to the oath against modernism. Could Paul Vl , JPII or even Ratzinger say they kept their oath?

There are about as many opinions about the pope and the current situation as there are Catholics. To me, it seems that when we discuss things with only second hand knowledge and try to draw conclusions in complex situations where we are not privy to all the details, then we are off on a wild goose chase. Francis can be anything you like, temporary hero to the NY Times and self-serving left, and a possible apocalyptic boogeyman to the right. Personally I just think he's kind of a lousy and unnecessarily divisive pope who seems suspiciously obtuse in his "teachings" none of which surprises me given we have, a Jesuit, and odds are any given Jesuit is probably at least a tad nuts. Be that as it may, we all feed the worms eventually, Jesus is in the boat, He is pretending to sleep, but maybe He wants us to have the leadership we deserve for awhile. After all the ancient Jews and their idols got nothing on us. To me, certain web sites have been chomping at the bit to unload this pope, I can sympathize, but in the end, they elected him basically king for life, so there it is.
